I snart fem decennier har Sveriges Doo Wop-kungar The Boppers levererat spelglädje och energi runtom i världen.
Med ett sound med rötterna i 50- och 60-talets Doo Wop & Rock'n Roll har man spelat till sig en definitiv plats i publikens hjärtan.
Med devisen Keep on Boppin' i ryggen har bandet i live-musikens tjänst, vuxit fram som ett av mest framgångsrika banden av sitt slag, såväl nationellt som internationellt. Genombrottet kom 1979 med debutalbumen Number One och Keep On Bopping som såldes i över 600 000 exemplar, Sveriges mest sålda album under detta år. Efter det har det kommit ett antal nya album och fler turnéer i Skandinavien, Europa och Japan. Och det är kärlek som spiller över, true love!

A great band that really love what they are doing, you can tell by their performance on stage that they absolutely love it! And it makes the audience happy!
They have been my favorites for many years, I think I have seen them 90 times soon. They and their music bring me so much joy.
One of the best concerts were on Spångafolkan. The show was divided in two and after a small break only Matte and Ingmar came out with acoustic guitars. They started singing ”Teenager in love” and they stopped singing just before the chorus line and the WHOLE audince sang it instead! No one knew before to do that, but everyone got it. Goose bumps! Hope to experience that again!
I have several favorite songs and if the play list contains ”Summertime Blues”, ”2 Fools in love”, ”Lonely Teardrops” or ”Remember Then” then I’m in heaven!
Can’t wait for next time ❤️
Another great performance from FATBOY.
The place was packed at Debaser Strand, Stockholm and as FATBOY entered the stage and opened with Diggin The Scene the crowd rocked n rolled throughout the May night. FATBOY is a bit heavier these days with the supersonic electric bass and the xtra rhythm guitar. The sound was also terrific - from the ballad moments to the rockier numbers. The setlist that closed the FATBOY springtour:
1 DIGGIN THE SCENE
2 TOUCH OF BLUE
3 WHAT WOULD ELVIS DO
4 MERCY MERCY
5 CRUEL LOVE
6 BACKBONE GIRL
7 JUST A LIL BIT
